๐จ๐จ Judge Mary Sommer finds that the prosecution violated Brady and dismisses the charges against Alec Baldwin with prejudice. The state acted in bad faith.

It's unreasonable for an actor to know how to inspect and verify arms and ammunition stretching across hundreds of years of development along with custom and highly modified weapons.
Do you actually expect Tom Hardy on the Black Hawk Down set to unload his FN Minimi, open up the drum and verify that each round fired is a dummy?

!r-slurs new poster boy above
Dude was practicing his draw. There shouldn't have been any ammo live or blank in that gun.
Had he checked no one would've died, had be bothered to face a wall while he practiced no one would've died

You can see the bullets in a revolver, all but two of them anyway

If you point
it at your face and shine
a light
on the cylinder you can sorta see two bullets in the model
he used. But that also still doesn't tell you anything
about whether it'll go off when you pull the trigger.

Look between the back of the cylinder and the frame and you can instantly tell if a revolver is loaded
(His gun was supposed to be completely empty, no dummy cartridges or anything)

On his revolver
it's completely shielded. You'd have to open the loading
gate, peepee the Hanmer, and rotate
the cylinder to inspect each individual chamber.
If you raised
the Hammer
too far, you'd have to pull the trigger to lower it.
...But every chamber was supposed to be loaded with a dummy
round
so that method doesn't tell you anything
either. It just introduces a lot of chances for another negligent discharge.
Do you have another
safety
strategy that doesn't involve an r-slured
untrained actor
pointing
a gun at his face, cocking the hammer, or pulling
the trigger?

it was a single action army clone, you can see the rims of loaded cartridges if you look between the cylinder and frame.![https://i.rdrama.net/images/1720919053809816.webp](https://i.rdrama.net/i/l.webp)
and the gun was supposed to be completely empty. So all he would have had to do is glance at the side of it. But if he's too r-slurred to do that he could just point it at the ground and dry fire it a few times. or point it in literally any other direction before pulling the trigger
